I think this record is my great grandfather. The only US record I have found that I know with certainty is him is his death record (1912) which lists his parents as "John Silveira" and "Marianna Florinda" and gives his birth as "1870" "Azores". What I can get from this record is that he was baptized 9 August 1868, his father is Joao Silveira de Souza and his mother is Marianna Florinda, paternal grandparents Manuel Silveira de Souza and Anna Luiza, maternal grandparents Antonio Jose Vieira and Barbara Florinda ________. I cannot make out what is written after Florinda. More importantly, it looks like the record states that his birth was in October 1867 but that line is really difficult to make out because of bleed-through from the back side of the page (I'm guessing). It is the record on the top right, #35, Jose.
1. Did I get the information correct? 2. Can anyone help with the last part of Barbara Florinda's name? 3. Can anyone verify/clarify the birth date in October? http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-VL-VELAS-B-1861-1870/SJR-VL-VELAS-B-1861-1870_item1/P217.html Thank you all -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.
